(Springfield, IL) — Democrats in the Illinois Senate aren’t waiting any longer. Leaders say they will vote on five billion-dollars in tax increases today. The tax hikes are the key part of the latest Democratic budget in Springfield. If the budget becomes law, and that’s a big if, the personal income tax rate in Illinois will jump to just under five-percent and a slew of new services will be hit with a sales tax.
